X=number of corect
y=number of incorrect
5 points for each correct so 5x
-1 point for each incorrect so -y

5x-y=76
solve for x and y

I like putting it into slope intercep tofrm which is y=mx+b
add y to both sides
5x=76+y
subtract 76 from both sides
5x-75=y
y=5x-76

subsitute values for x and get values for y
remember, that julia cannot answer a negative number of incorrect questions so y must be greater than or equal to 0

so solve for minimum
0<u><</u>5x-76
add 76 to both sides
76<u><</u>5x
divide by 5
15.2<u><</u>x
you cannot answer a fraction of a correct quesiton so round up
16 is the minumum number of queswtions correctlyh answered


so
x<u>></u>16

subsitute 16 for x
y=5(16)-76
y=80-76
y=4

as we subsitute more numbers over 16, we get these points
so (x,y) 
(16,4)
(17,9)
(18,14)
(19,19)
(20,24)
(21,29)
(22,34)
(23,39)
x=correct answer
y=wrong answers

Kaylis [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula to calculate a circumference is

x \times \pi

(consider x as the diameter)

so I'll be noting the circumference as C alongside the circle's ranking

a.

ca = 6 \times 22 \div 7 \\  = 44 \div 7

b.

cb  = 7 \times 22 \div 7 \\  = 154 \div 7 \\  = 22

c.

cc \:  = 4 \times 22 \div 7 \\  = 88 \div 7

hope I helped

3. You have decided to wallpaper your rectangular bedroom. The dimensions are 12 feet 6 inches by 10 feet 6 inches by 8 feet 0 i
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

B. 5 rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas of the room, not including the ceiling, are discriminated as follows:

Longer walls: (12.5\times8)\times2=200ft^2 (6 inches equals one foot)

Shorter walls: (10.5\times8)\times2 = 168ft ^ 2 (6 inches equals one foot)

Window area: (4\times3)\times2 = 24ft ^ 2

Door area: (7\times3) = 21ft ^ 2

Area that will be effectively covered:

Total area to wallpaper: 200 + 168 -24 -21 = 323ft ^ 2

Amount of paper needed: 323\times1.1 = 355.3ft ^ 2

30in = 24in + 6in = 2ft + 0.5ft = 2.5ft. That is, the area of ​​a roll of paper is 2.5\times30 = 75ft ^ 2

Number of rolls needed:

\frac{355.3}{75} = 4.73 rolls
